Precautions WARNING Installation • Connect this unit’s power cord only to an AC outlet of the type stated in this Owner’s Manual or as marked on the unit. Failure to do so is a fire and electrical shock hazard. • Do not allow water to enter this unit or allow the unit to become wet. Fire or electrical shock may result. • Do not place a container with liquid or small metal objects on top of this unit. Liquid or metal objects inside this unit are a fire and electrical shock hazard. • Do not place heavy objects, including this unit, on top of the power cord. A damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard. In particular, be careful not to place heavy objects on a power cord covered by a carpet. • The power to this device is not completely shut off even when the power switch is turned off. Locate the device close to the AC outlet so you can easily reach the power plug. • Use only the included power cord for this unit. Using other types may be a fire and electrical shock hazard.
Operation • Do not scratch, bend, twist, pull, or heat the power cord. A damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard.
• Do not remove the unit’s cover. You could receive an electrical shock. If you think internal inspection, maintenance, or repair is necessary, contact your dealer. • Do not modify the unit. Doing so is a fire and electrical shock hazard. • If lightning begins to occur, turn off the power switch of the unit as soon as possible, and unplug the power cable plug from the electrical outlet. • If there is a possibility of lightning, do not touch the power cable plug if it is still connected. Doing so may be an electrical shock hazard.
In case an abnormality occurs during operation • If the power cord is damaged (i.e., cut or a bare wire is exposed), ask your dealer for a replacement. Using the unit with a damaged power cord is a fire and electrical shock hazard. • Should this unit be dropped or the cabinet be damaged, turn the power switch off, remove the power plug from the AC outlet, and contact your dealer.

Introduction Thank you for purchasing the Yamaha EMX66M Powered Mixer. In order to take full advantage of the EMX66M and enjoy long and trouble-free performance, please read this owner’s manual carefully, and keep it in a safe place for future reference.
Features • The EMX66M provides six input channels compatible with mic/line signals, including highimpedance input suitable for an electric-acoustic guitar. The EMX66M has ample power, with a maximum output of 300 W+300 W (600 W with bridge connection), and is suitable for a wide range of applications from installed systems to small-scale PA systems. • A two-channel power amp is built-in. The input signals for the two channels can be selected as MAIN+MAIN, MAIN+MONITOR, or MAIN (bridge connection). • Independent 7-band graphic EQ is provided for both the MONITOR section and the MAIN section. This allows the volume and frequency response to be adjusted separately for the main speakers and monitor speakers. • The power amp section has a limiter circuit to prevent sound distortion and protect the speakers. • A digital effect with eight selectable effect types is built-in. A variety of effects can be applied to add reverberation or ambiance to vocals or instrumental sounds. • The EMX66M has implemented “EEEngine”, Yamaha’s epochal amp drive technology to create an unrivaled high-efficiency drive. The EEEngine’s energy-saver/low-heat-generation design has reduced power consumption to 50% or less, and reduced heat generation to 35% or less (in field applications, compared to Yamaha’s previous models), and has lead to a reduction in energy cost and to less-restrictive installation requirements related to heat generation.

1 Equalizer controls (HIGH, MID, LOW) This is a 3-band equalizer that adjusts the high frequency range, mid frequency range, and low frequency range of each channel. Response is flat when the knobs are in the “▼” position. Rotating it toward the right will boost the corresponding frequency band, and rotating it toward the left will cut it. The base frequency (or center frequency), range of boost or cut, and equalizer type of each band are as follows. HIGH: 10 kHz ±15 dB shelving type MID: 2.5 kHz ±15 dB peaking type LOW: 100 Hz ±15 dB shelving type
Note: The signal is sent to the MONITOR bus from a location before the level control (4) of each channel. This means that it will not be affected by the setting of the LEVEL control.
3 Effect control (EFFECT) For each channel, this controls the amount of signal that is sent to the EFFECT bus. The signal of the EFFECT bus is sent to the builtin effect and to the EFFECT OUT jacks (input/ output panel 3). Note: The signal is sent to the EFFECT bus from a location after the level control (4) of each channel. This means that the amount of signal that is sent to the EFFECT bus will be affected not only by the setting of the effect control, but also by the setting of the level control.
4 Level control (LEVEL) This control adjusts the level of signals routed from each channel to the MAIN bus and to the built-in power amplifier. The MAIN bus signal is sent to the MAIN jacks (input/output panel 6) and the SPEAKERS jacks on the rear panel 1.
5 Pad switch (PAD) (Channel 1–4 only) This switch attenuates the input signal by 30 dB. When connecting a line level device to channels 1–4, or if the mic input is distorted, turn this switch on (the pressed-in position).

1 Hi-Z, Low-Z input jacks
2 MIC, LINE, Super Hi-Z input jacks
These are the input jacks for channels 1–4. By using the PAD switches (control panel 5) you can connect any of the jacks to a wide range of sources from mics to line level devices (synthesizers or rhythm boxes etc.). The Low-Z jacks can provide +15 V phantom power, allowing you to use condenser microphones. Both Hi-Z and Low-Z are balanced, and are compatible with microphones of output impedance 50–600Ω or line level devices of 600Ω. The nominal input level is –40 dB – –10 dB for the Hi-Z jacks, and –50 dB – –20 dB for the Low-Z jacks. Pin connections for the Hi-Z and Low-Z jacks are as follows. Low-Z jacks (XLR type)

Note: It is not possible to simultaneously use both the Hi-Z and Low-Z inputs of a given channel. For each channel, use only one of the inputs as appropriate for the input source. Phantom power is switched on/off simultaneously for the Low-Z jacks of channels 1-4 and the MIC jacks of channels 5-6. For this reason, any devices other than condenser microphones must be connected to the Hi-Z or LINE jacks if the PHANTOM switch (control panel K) is on.
These are the input jacks for channels 5–6. Microphones can be connected to the MIC jacks, and stereo line level devices (such as synthesizers or rhythm boxes) can be connected to the LINE jacks. The MIC jacks are balanced, and are compatible with microphones of output impedance 50– 600Ω. The LINE 1 & 2 jacks are unbalanced, and are compatible with line level devices of 600Ω output impedance. These two input jacks can be used simultaneously. Nominal input level is –50 dB for the MIC jacks and –10 dB for the LINE jacks. Super Hi-Z 1 & 2 jacks are unbalanced, can be used simultaneously, and their high input impedance makes them ideal for use with instruments such as electric-acoustic guitar and electric bass. They can also be used with line-level sources, such as synthesizers and drum machines. Nominal input level is –30 dB. Note: It is possible to simultaneously use both the MIC and LINE inputs for channel 5, and the MIC and Super Hi-Z inputs for channel 6.
3 Effect output jack (EFFECT OUT) The input of an external effect such as a delay or echo can be connected to this jack. The signal adjusted by the EFFECT control (control panel 3) of each channel will be sent to the EFFECT bus, and output from this jack. The nominal output level and conforming impedance are +4 dB/10 kΩ.

5 AUX IN/2TR IN—INPUT TO MAIN jacks These are input jacks that allow the signal from an external device to be added to the MAIN output. Monaural output devices such as external effects can be connected to the AUX IN jack, and stereo output devices such as cassette recorder or CD players can be connected to the 2TR IN jacks. The nominal input level and impedance are –10 dB/ 600Ω for the AUX IN jack, and –10 dBV/600Ω for the 2TR IN jacks.
6 REC OUT/MAIN/MONITOR—OUTPUT jacks These are output jacks which send line level signals from the EMX66M to external devices. A stereo recording device such as a cassette deck, DAT or MD recorder can be connected to the REC OUT jacks, and a playback device such a power amp can be connected to the MONITOR and MAIN jacks. The signals sent from each jack are as follows. • REC OUT jacks: The MAIN bus signal before it has passed through the MASTER control and graphic equalizer • MAIN jack: The MAIN bus signal which has passed through the Main MASTER control and graphic equalizer • MONITOR jack: The MONITOR bus signal which has passed through the Monitor MASTER control and graphic equalizer The nominal output level and impedance are –10 dBV/10 kΩ for the REC OUT jacks, and +4 dB/10 kΩ for the MONITOR/MAIN jacks.

As a band PA Here is an example of using the EMX66M as a small PA for a band. In this example, the monitor speakers are being sent a mix that is independent of the MAIN speaker mix. An external effect such as delay or reverb is also being used.
Connections Note: Set the power amp select switch of the POWER AMP section to the “MAIN MON” position. If you are using an external effect, we recommend that you turn down the EFFECT RTN controls of the MAIN and MONITOR sections. If the external effect has a stereo output, it is possible to connect its output jacks to the LINE jacks of channels 5. However in this case, be sure that the EFFECT controls are turned all the way down for the channels into which the effect sound is being input. If the EFFECT controls are raised, feedback will occur, and your speakers may be damaged.
• Connect mics or instruments, such as keyboards, to the channel input jacks 1–6. • Connect the main speakers to the SPEAKERS A 1/2 jacks, and connect the monitor speakers to the SPEAKERS B 1/2 jacks. Then, set the power amp select switch to “MAIN-MON.” • If you will be using an external effect such as delay or reverb, connect the EMX66M’s EFFECT OUT jack to the input jack of the external effect, and connect the output jack of the external effect to the EMX66M’s AUX IN jack.

Example setups
Sending an independent mix to the monitor speakers 1 Set the MONITOR section MASTER con√” position. trol to the “√
2 Raise the MONITOR controls for the channels that you wish to hear from the monitor speakers. Note: The MONITOR controls are not affected by the level settings of each channel. This allows you to create a mix that is independent of the MAIN section.
3 Use the graphic equalizers and MASTER controls of the MAIN/MONITOR sections to adjust the overall volume and tone.
EMX66M—Owner’s Manual
Using an external effect 1 Raise the EFFECT controls for the channels to which you want the external effect to be applied.
2 Adjust the input level of the external effect so that the sound is not distorted at the input of the external effect.
3 Use the MAIN section AUX IN control to adjust the level of the sound processed by the effect.
Installing an optional rack mount kit
23
Installing an optional rack mount kit You can rack-mount the EMX66M using an optional rack mount kit (RK-88). Rack mount kit RK-88
Installing the rack mount bracket 1 Remove the carrying handle by loosening and removing four screws.
• Bracket × 2 • Screw × 6
Before you rack-mount the EMX66M, make sure that sufficient ventilation will be maintained. (Never install the unit in a sealed rack.) If you are going to install multiple devices including the unit in a rack, keep a 1U space or more between the devices. Use a blank panel with holes for ventilation if you wish to insert a panel between the devices. You will need a 7U space to install the rack mount. After installation, the unit will project 62 mm from the front surface of the rack. 62
2 Attach one of the rack mount brackets to the side of the EMX66M using three included screws.
3 Attach the other rack mount bracket in the same way.

Powered Mixer Q&A Q: The built-in effect is not effective.
A: The ON switch in the DIGITAL EFFECT section may not be turned on. Or, you have adjusted the EFFECT control in the Channel section or the EFFECT RTN control in the MAIN section.
Q: The monitoring sound from the speakers is not powerful enough relative to the level of the input sound.
A: The equalizer LOW control for each channel may be set to negative values.
Q: The stereo output from the synthesizer has been routed to the Super Hi-Z jack of channel 6, but the monitoring sound is not stereo.
A: You can use Super Hi-Z (or LINE) 1 and 2 jacks at the same time. However, they are internally routed into a mono channel, and therefore the signals from 1 and 2 jacks are output as mono signal.
Q: The signal is sent from the EFFECT OUT jack to the connected effect processor. Then the effect sound is returned to the AUX IN jack. However, no signal is input to the mixer.
A: The AUX IN control in the MAIN section may not be rotated to right.
Q: An external powered speaker is connected to the MONITOR-OUTPUT jack. However, the signal is not sent to the speaker even when the MASTER control in the MONITOR section is turned.
A: The MONITOR controls for input channels may not have been adjusted.
Q: Can the Low-Z jack and the Hi-Z jack be used at the same time?
A: You cannot use the Low-Z jack and the Hi-Z jack for the same channel at the same time.
Q: Can a single speaker be connected to the mixer?
A: Yes. Use a speaker with an impedance of 4–8 Ω.
